Fictioning

Fictioning in art is an open-ended, experimental practice that involves performing, diagramming or assembling to create or anticipate that which does not exist. In this extensively illustrated book containing over 80 diagrams and images of artworks, David Burrows and Simon O’Sullivan explore the technics of fictioning through three focal points: mythopoesis, myth-science and mythotechnesis. These relate to three specific modes of fictioning: performance fictioning, science fictioning and machine fictioning. In this way, Burrows and O’Sullivan explore how fictioning can offer us alternatives to the dominant fictions that construct our reality in an age of `post-truth’ and `perception management’. Through fictioning, they look forward to the new kinds of human, part-human and non-human bodies and societies to come.

Vastra is a man possessed. Where other men require food to sustain them, his craving is for power. He seeks an Eldric talisman, ensnaring two men to aid him. Fate guides his hand and, unwittingly, he chooses Kaplyn, who is seeking to escape his own destiny and Lars, shipwrecked and friendless, an outcast on the Allund shore. An unlikely trio, they form a fragile alliance but, recklessly ambitious, Vastra will betray them in a heartbeat. Throughout their travels, there are clear signs that demons are active, stealing souls to slake their hunger. Their journey takes them to a mysterious tower, beset by traps, where Kaplyn triggers a chain of events unleashing the full power of a prophecy that could doom them all. Deep in the heart of a mountain lays a power that not even Vastra has the audacity to envision. But who really is guiding Vastra's destiny? Kaplyn has the talisman and, for all of Vastra's threats, he is unwilling to part with it.

Armies are gathering but Astalus, the Thracian court wizard, is in a quandary. Shocking news has arrived from an unlikely source. A spy, arrested brazenly entering the city, claims to be a prince from a royal household that was overthrown, the family members murdered over sixty years ago. Intriguingly, the spy's claim to be from Allund is more than a coincidence, for the army marching against them is also from Allund. Who indeed to trust? The stranger brings with him news of an army from Trosgarth, which can only mean one thing. Drachar's shade has been summoned and the Prophecy is coming to pass. Old alliances are broken and many monarchs slain. No sign yet exists of the king predicted by the Prophecy, who will save them all. Astalus, normally so certain and confident, is suddenly plummeted into his worst nightmare, for soon Thrace could be threatened by demons and, against them, there is no salvation. In a land fraught with betrayal, fear and death, the shadows are deepening.

Astalus has returned. He has found an Eldric spell book and, in particular, a spell to summon dragons. The allies march north to confront the Trosgarth's growing might. Warrior priests can now communicate across the battlefield using their shaol, death knights have been resurrected, and in the air grakyn are supported by a new threat - a demon/dragon hybrid. To make matters worse, Astalus discovers that the power that Kaplyn recovered so long ago can open a permanent gateway to the demon world. Drachar is finally free and his minions will march from the very depths of hell. Astalus knows all of this through a demon that has possessed him. The army marches to its fate, unaware of the trap awaiting them. Prince Fiad leads them. Will he be the army's salvation or damnation? The men mutter, uncomfortable in the knowledge that, at the final battle, a king will not lead them against the tides of evil. Drachar is poised, his death knights ready to tear the army apart.

Omnibus version. Soon men, dragons and demons will wage horrific war. A time is fast approaching when the fabric separating these worlds will thin sufficiently for demons to cross the divide, but the people are largely ignorant of this, preferring forgetfulness rather than confronting their fears. The Eldric, saviours of previous wars, have mysteriously disappeared from the world, leaving behind crumbling ruins. A sorcerer, Vastra, recklessly ambitious and driven by greed for power, seeks an Eldric talisman and recruits Kaplyn and Lars to help. Together they unravel an ancient secret that could doom them all. The evil that is Trosgarth is spreading across the land, monarchs are slain to deny the Prophecy from coming to pass, Priests of Ryoch are trained to communicate via their Shaols (their guardian spirits), while grakyn and krell gather in the remote regions of the world. As yet the drums of war beat quietly but all too soon they will call for all out war and who then will be ready?

A time is fast approaching when demons will once more cross the great divide, seeking fresh souls. The people are largely ignorant of this fact. Their saviours, the Eldric, have mysteriously vanished from the land, leaving behind only the crumbling remains of their once proud cities. The Prophecy, although not forgotten, has become a tale for children dreaming of heroic deeds in a distant war, but Drachar's followers have not been idle as they seek to influence events predicting that He will once more stalk the land, leading a demon horde. A quest to find what became of the Eldric leads to the discovery of a power, deep in the heart of a mountain. Its discovery will rekindle fresh hope that the Eldric can be found. In the coming conflict, new allies will be sought. A clash of powers will breach the fabric between the worlds, allowing the shade of a dead emperor to cross the divide. Priests of Ryoch will seek children with an evil shaol, creating omnipotent warriors. Death-knights will stalk the living and dragons will be set against demons. In a land smothered by doubt and treachery, few can be trusted. Friends that were once allies now seemingly stand with the enemy. A gateway to the demon world threatens all of humanity as once more a cloak of darkness covers the land.

Can you hear the child’s voice?The Court of Appeal have commented that the family courts are ‘still feeling their way forward in order to determine how best to ‘hear the voice of a child’.In this new title David Burrows looks at the jurisprudence surrounding this remark, relates it to European and UN Convention rights and looks at the most recent children case law.It concentrates on:Children in court proceedings, particularly in family proceedingsContrasting the way courts hear children’s views with the way their evidence is heardAny rights to which a child is entitled (common law; European Convention 1950; UN Conventions; and EU Directives), such as to confidentiality and to take part (or be heard) in proceedings. The meaning and effect of a child’s ‘understanding’ in court proceedings, and the way that term varies according to a child’s age and the issue before the court.Legislation and case law covered and analysed includes:Children Act 1989 and applicable Family Procedure Rules 2010Human Rights Act 1998 and European Convention 1950Civil Procedure Rules 1998LASPO Act 2012Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Act 1999Re D (A Child) (International Recognition) – child’s right to be heardRe W (A Child)– rules for child representation in hearingsP v A Local Authority (Fam) – legal aid and statutory damagesRe W (Children) (Abuse: Oral Evidence) – child’s evidenceR (D (a minor)) v Camberwell Green Youth Court – safeguards in criminal law for childrenProtocol and Good Practice Model Disclosure of information in cases of alleged child abuse and linked criminal and care directions hearings – October 2013Achieving Best Evidence: Guidance on interviewing children March 2011This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Family Law online service.
Privilege, Privacy and Confidentiality in Family Proceedings
How far does a client’s or a child’s confidentiality extend on family breakdown? Understand the fundamental importance of legal privilege, privacy and confidentiality in family breakdown and in family court proceedings. Looking at the duties of confidentiality of all practitioners involved in family proceedings, this title puts privilege, privacy and confidentiality in its common law context. It considers and contrasts that family proceedings are almost always heard ‘in private’; and explains how this rule sits with common law principles. It singles out the particular issues in care proceedings where there are parallel criminal proceedings and explains the differences in law and on statutory guidance between the duties of confidentiality between lawyers, doctors and social workers. This new title helps you tackle questions such as: Is a child entitled to confidentiality; or is it correct, as Working Together guidance says, that the mature child’s confidences should be ‘shared’? When can privilege be overridden; and when does it not apply? Does without prejudice immunity cover a mediator? When are closed materials procedures appropriate in children proceedings? This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Family Law online service.

Kaplyn faces a dilemma. In a heart-pounding journey through a bedevilled tower set with traps he must find an ancient Eldric talisman. Everything in the tower seems unreal and he must use all his cunning to survive. Vastra, a self-professed sorcerer, claims the talisman will reveal the whereabouts of the Eldric, a lost race whose sorcerers were instrumental in defeating Drachar and the demon hordes in the legendary Krell Wars. But is Vastra to be trusted? He is manipulative and lusts for power and harbours a secret for which he will kill to protect. Their journey is fraught with danger and there are indications that demons are crossing the Divide, but are these random events or more worryingly an indication that Drachar's might is once more on the rise? In a world rife with superstition, no one wants to believe that a future demon threat is real. The dread that a demon can materialise anywhere and take souls for eternal damnation is horrifying. The Prophecy is largely forgotten, and the people prefer blissful ignorance to truth. Krell have been banished to the wild and the tribes fight among themselves. Guardian spirits watch over the people but for most, this link is tenuous at best, yet for a select few this link is strong, and the enemy will seek an advantage in that. For the moment the land is at peace, but evil is stirring, and peace can be shattered. War is coming. A war like no other.

Kaplyn's mind is in turmoil. His dreams are haunted by dragons and yet dragons are a myth. Terror stalks his nightmares whilst fear plagues his waking life. He stumbles on an enemy army concealed in a forest on Thrace's border and in terror flees. Yet, upon reaching the sanctuary of Thrace no one believes him, and he and his companions are thrown into the dungeons as spies. One-time allies, Thrace and Allund now seem on the precipice of war. A war that strikingly has all the hallmarks of Trosgarth, the ancient enemy. Drachar, too, seems implicated. The enemy has been busy, and betrayal and assassination are set to defeat the Prophecy. Priests of Ryoch denounce the Old Ones and the Allund monarchy has been replaced by a council of leaders. Astalus the Thracian court wizard is set the seemingly impossible task of proving Kaplyn's claims. Is the Prophecy coming to pass and is a Second Krell War imminent? Disaster looms, for the Eldric have gone and with them the only means of countering the growing demon threat. Sorcerers, wizards, demons, and dragons are set to clash in a fight for survival.

Events are coming to a head. The battle for CarCamel has ended and Kaplyn is seen as the people's saviour. Catriona, the Thracian Queen, demands that he leads the army in its fight against Trosgarth, with a dragon at his command. Kaplyn, however, has other ideas. Dragons terrify him, but he cannot fathom why; after all a dragon helped them to defeat demons in the recent conflict. It is a conundrum, but it is not his immediate concern for Astalus, the Thracian court wizard, using magic, reveals an image of Vastra, now an old man, held captive in Aldrace. Kaplyn's fears are realised, for if the enemy have Vastra then they must also have the second crystal from the Tree of Life. A permanent gateway to the demon world is now a reality. Kaplyn's priority must be to recover the crystal at all costs. Abandoning the army, he sets of in pursuit of Vastra, not realising the terrible consequences of his actions, for the full horror of his links to Shastlan's shade are about to be revealed.Prophecy of the Kings is a Gold Award Winner on Readersfavorite.com 2010 and was Book of the Month SFBooks.com.

The trafficking of children in Victorian London is paramount to a story that is as brutal as it is sad, as miserable as it is joyous, as grotesque as it is beautiful. It also a tale of revenge and redemption.Two dogged Scotland Yard detectives hunting for the killer of an upmarket prostitute are side tracked to also hunt down twin brothers William and Robert Boyle.Having returned to London after a five-year absence the twins are determined to track down and violently punish anyone who crossed their paths when they were children. Top of their list are all those who trafficked them and two policemen who viciously birched them. But it is not only the detectives who are hunting the Boyle's, so is Joe Straw, a notorious private detective who will go to any lengths to protect his upper-class paymasters. Straw is as cold and ruthless as his prey.This is a tale of the social injustices of the times where the poor are there to be used, abused, and thrown away by a callous establishment interested only in covering up its perverted secret twilight world.Follow the detectives as they pursue all manner of bazaar enquiries in their quest to not only catch the twins but to also expose the pimps, madams, and their vile clientele to the full force of the law. Mixed with light and often very dark humour this tail will grip you by the lapels and drag you through the slums, upmarket brothels, and Streets of London.A wealth of characters are packed into an easy to read full length novel that will enthral you, horrify you, amuse you, and if you have a kind heart it may break it.
